Michael K. Williams went to therapy after filming Lovecraft Country – New York Post

The late actor Michael K. Williams opened up about entering therapy to address his struggles with drug abuse during one of his last interviews after filming HBO’s “Lovecraft Country.” Just months before he was found dead of a suspected heroin overdose, Williams told syndicated TV talk-show host Tamron Hall that he sought mental health treatment after wrapping up the Emmy-nominated performance. “I just started therapy, you know, and really taking that seriously and starting to unpack, like you said, the critic in my head and what and how that has affected my — my actions, my responses to certain situations, my relationships,” he said in a video clip posted to YouTube on Feb. 25. “It was a very new process for me.” Williams, who was promoting the movie “Body...

Vietnamese man jailed for five years for spreading coronavirus – CNN

Le Van Tri, 28, was convicted of "spreading dangerous infectious diseases" at a one-day trial at the People's Court of the southern province of Ca Mau, according to the state-run Vietnam News Agency (VNA). Vietnam has been one of the world's coronavirus success stories, thanks to targeted mass testing, aggressive contact tracing, tight border restrictions and strict quarantine. But new clusters of infections since late April have tarnished that record. "Tung traveled back to Ca Mau from Ho Chi Minh City ... and breached the 21-day quarantine regulations," the news agency said. "Tung infected eight people, one of whom died due to the virus after one month of treatment," it added. Reuters did not immediately reach the Ca Mau court for comment. Ca Mau, Vietnam's southernmost provi...

UC San Diego Health Sees Resurgence of COVID Cases in Employees, Even Among the Vaccinated – NBC San Diego

With the rise in breakthrough COVID cases amid the surge of the Delta variant nationwide, even vaccinated workers at UC San Diego health weren’t spared. The hospital system saw a significant increase in infections from June to July this year, even though more than 80% of its employees are fully vaccinated.

Phoebe Waller-Bridge Exits Amazon’s Mr. & Mrs. Smith Reboot – Vulture

Phoebe Waller-Bridge has left the upcoming Amazon Mr. & Mrs. Smith reboot, per Deadline. Waller-Bridge was set to co-create and star in the series opposite Donald Glover, as the Mrs. Smith to his Mr., presumably. The exit was reportedly due to creative differences between Glover and Waller-Bridge, who previously co-starred in Solo together. Glover is still attached to the project as co-creator, executive producer, and star, with Atlanta’s Francesca Sloane signed on as co-creator, showrunner, and executive producer of the series. Amazon has not yet released a statement regarding Waller-Bridge’s exit. At least we’ll always have the pair’s #SilhouetteChallenge parody announcement.
